Posted this a few days ago, but it was late at night, and got literally 2 responses so I figured I'd try again when it wasn't at night.
Getting off the Roe V Wade train for a while (since it's been beat to death all day), I happened upon a random article proclaiming Japan to be a "Trumpian paradise" because of their immigration policies. For those of you that don't know, Japan has one of the strictest immigration policies in the world. It's essentially impossible to immigrate to Japan if you're not Japanese or an American who was raised on an American military base in Japan. The article goes on to explain how these policies are causing Japan's population to rapidly decrease over time since their birth rates are below replacement level.
Now you may be asking, how does this not happen to other nations with similar birth rates, like the USA for example? Well, most other nations allow immigration, thus as long as your nation is attractive for people to live financially, you'll have a steady stream of immigrants ready to go join your population. Keep in mind, this doesn't mean that all of these people are always aiming for, or will be granted citizenship.
Australia is a good example of that. Ignoring the cabal muslim invasion of Australia, Australia is actually rather strict on actual immigrants as well. They only allow a certain amount a year, and the requirements change on annually based on what job sectors are lacking man power. So one year you might have doctors being given preferential treatment in the immigration offices, and the year after it might be miners, etc. etc. And there's always a limit on the number of people admitted so only the best applicants are entertained.
In both cases, most people will start out as a permanent resident, meaning they're permanently residing in the nation, but they're not a citizen thereof and have limited rights (Like the lack of a right to vote for example). Most of the time, they'll just stay that way the rest of their lives. If they value citizenship, then they'll finish going through the process to become citizens.
Now with all the boring explanation out of the way, let's get back to Japan. The article I found talked about how by 2060, Japan will finally have a stabilized population of 90-100 Million. Meaning their population will finally have achieved equilibrium with their birth rates. It would more or less stay in that 90-100 Million range unless some outside factor resulted in a large change in their birth rates for the foreseeable future (the article said 2100).
The article also talked about the possibility of using government policies to incentivize marriage and having a family among young people. In this model, Japan will continue to contract for another decade, before expanding at moderate, but extremely stable rate resulting in a population of 140-150 Million by 2060. This actually seems to be what Japan is currently testing the waters with, given their absolute loathing of the idea of allowing immigrants access to Japan.
So now my actual question, what do you guys think will happen with the US, Canada, Australia, UK, Germany, France, etc. when all this is over? Are we going to see population expansions because of a second "baby boomer" generation, ala WW II? Will we continue with the current model, but just with stricter laws and regulations so as to maintain a controlled expansion like how it's supposed to technically work in Australia? Or will we see mass population contractions like Japan is currently experiencing because we all cut off the stream of immigrants post-globalization? Or perhaps the model Japan is currently testing will prove to be the ideal model for all of us, and we'll experience a few decades of contraction before achieving a stabilized growth pattern through nothing but natural growth?
Or perhaps a hybrid model where we allow for strict and limited immigration, while also incentivizing family units in order to achieve a stabilized birth rate. Ergo, avoiding the contraction phase altogether by initially allowing for more immigration, while gradually weaning ourselves to the bare minimum?
Not the most exciting topic, I know. But it do find that it's an important discussion for the post cabal world that's rapidly coming to fruition.
I don't quite think you read anything I said. None of that has to do with what I'm saying. I was talking about sustainable growth and immigration in relation to population sizes. No one's talking about the ability to support a larger population, we're just talking about what methodology used to increase population growth and sustain it in the long run.
Places like the US, Canada, UK, etc. currently use immigration to sustain their population growth, whereas places like Japan are experiencing a population contraction currently, but will eventually even out and begin growing again once they reach a stabilized equilibrium. That's what's being discussed here.
Sorry ADHD. I just saw the word population and my mind ran amuck.
